FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention concerns tricyclic oxazolidinone antibioticcompounds, a pharmaceutical antibacterial composition containing themand the use of these compounds in the manufacture of a medicament forthe treatment of infections (e.g. bacterial infections). These compoundsare useful antimicrobial agents effective against a variety of human andveterinary pathogens including among others Gram-positive andGram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria and mycobacteria.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The intensive use of antibiotics has exerted a selective evolutionarypressure on microorganisms to produce genetically based resistancemechanisms. Modern medicine and socio-economic behaviour exacerbate theproblem of resistance development by creating slow growth situations forpathogenic microbes, e.g. in artificial joints, and by supportinglong-term host reservoirs, e.g. in immuno-compromised patients.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

In hospital settings, an increasing number of strains of Staphylococcusaureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Enterococcus spp., and Pseudomonasaeruginosa, major sources of infections, are becoming multi-drugresistant and therefore difficult if not impossible to treat:

-   -   S. aureus is resistant to β-lactams, quinolones and now even to        vancomycin;    -   S. pneumoniae is becoming resistant to penicillin or quinolone        antibiotics and even to new macrolides;    -   Enteroccocci are quinolone and vancomycin resistant and β-lactam        antibiotics are inefficacious against these strains;    -   Enterobacteriaceae are cephalosporin and quinolone resistant;    -   P. aeruginosa are β-lactam and quinolone resistant.

Furthermore, the incidence of multi-drug-resistant Gram-negative strainssuch as Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, is steadilyincreasing and new emerging organisms like Acinetobacter spp. orClostridium difficile, which have been selected during therapy with thecurrently used antibiotics, are becoming a real problem in hospitalsettings. Therefore, there is a high medical need for new antibacterialagents which overcome multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacilli such asA. baumannii, ESBL-producing E. coli and Klebsiella species andPseudomonas aeruginosa (Clinical Infectious Diseases (2006), 42,657-68).

In addition, microorganisms that are causing persistent infections areincreasingly being recognized as causative agents or cofactors of severechronic diseases like peptic ulcers or heart diseases.

Azatricyclic antibiotic compounds have already been described in WO2007/071936 and WO 2007/122258 (disclosing3-oxo-1,2-dihydro-3H-2a,6-diaza-acenaphthyl ene-1-methyl derivatives),WO 2007/081597 (disclosing4-oxo-1,2-dihydro-4H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinoline-1-methyl derivatives),WO 2007/115947 (disclosing3-oxo-5,6-dihydro-3H-pyrrolo[1,2,3-de]quinoxaline-6-methyl derivatives)and WO 2008/003690 (disclosing notably1-(7-oxo-5,6,9a,9b-tetrahydro-4H,7H-1,6a-diaza-phenalen-5-yl)-piperidine-4-yland 1-(5-oxo-2,3,7a, 10b-tetrahydro-1H,5H-pyridoquinolin-2-yl)-piperidine-4-yl derivatives). More recently, furtherazatricyclic antibiotics have been described in WO 2008/120003, WO2008/128942, WO 2008/128953, WO 2008/128962, WO 2009/000745 and WO2009/087153 (all filed before, but published after the earliest prioritydate(s) of the present application).

Quinoline, naphthyridine or quinoxaline spirooxazolidinone antibioticcompounds have already been described in WO 2008/026172. More recently,other antibiotic compounds comprising an oxazolidinone motif have beendisclosed in WO 2008/126024, WO 2008/126034, WO 2009/077989 and WO2009/104159 (all filed before, but published after the earliest prioritydate(s) of the present application).

Moreover, azatricyclic antibiotics comprising an oxazolidinone motifhave been described in WO 2009/104147 (the priority or filing dates ofwhich are earlier than some of or all those of the present application,while the publication took place after the priority dates of the presentapplication).

The Applicants have now found a new family of tricyclic antibioticcompounds corresponding to the formula I described hereafter.

Various embodiments of the invention are presented hereafter:

As a further example, in the substructure A, if it is        stated that A represents —COCH₂CH(OH)—, it is thereby meant that        the CO group of said radical is attached to the neighbouring        nitrogen while the CH(OH) part of said radical is attached to        the oxazolidinone ring. In other words, the left part of a        radical is always attached to the right part of the radical that        is next to the left.

In this text, a bond interrupted by a wavy line shows a point ofattachment of the radical drawn to the rest of the molecule. Forexample, the radical drawn below

is the 3-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[1,4]thiazin-6-yl group.

The compounds of formula I according to this invention may contain oneor more stereogenic or asymmetric centers, such as one or moreasymmetric carbon atoms. The compounds of formula I may thus be presentas mixtures of stereoisomers or, preferably, as pure stereoisomers.Mixtures of stereoisomers may be separated in a manner known to a personskilled in the art.

Whenever the absolute stereochemistry indication “(R)” or “(S)” isomitted in the name of a compound although there is a correspondingasymmetric carbon atom, it is meant thereby that this compound namerefers to either the (R)-configured compound or the (S)-configuredcompound.

The relative configuration of stereoisomers having two asymmetriccenters is indicated in this text by using the wording (R*,R*) to referto either the (R,R)-configured stereomer or the (S,S)-configuredstereomer and the wording (R*,S*) to refer to either the(R,S)-configured stereomer or the (S,R)-configured stereomer. Thus, forexample,(1R*,2R*)-4-oxo-1-{3-[(R)-2-oxo-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[1,4]thiazin-6-yl)-oxazolidin-5-yl]-propylamino}-1,2-dihydro-4H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinoline-2-carboxylicacid methyl ester refers to either(1R,2R)-4-oxo-1-{3-[(R)-2-oxo-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[1,4]thiazin-6-yl)-oxazolidin-5-yl]-propylamino}-1,2-dihydro-4H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinoline-2-carboxylicacid methyl ester or(1S,2S)-4-oxo-1-{3-[(R)-2-oxo-3-(3-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[1,4]thiazin-6-yl)-oxazolidin-5-yl]-propylamino}-1,2-dihydro-4H-pyrrolo[3,2,1-ij]quinoline-2-carboxylicacid methyl ester.

The present invention also includes isotopically labelled, especially ²H(deuterium) labelled compounds of formula I, which compounds areidentical to the compounds of formula I except that one or more atomshave each been replaced by an atom having the same atomic number but anatomic mass different from the atomic mass usually found in nature.Isotopically labelled, especially ²H (deuterium) labelled compounds offormula I and salts thereof are within the scope of the presentinvention. Substitution of hydrogen with the heavier isotope ²H(deuterium) may lead to greater metabolic stability, resulting e.g. inincreased in-vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements, or may leadto reduced inhibition of cytochrome P450 enzymes, resulting e.g. in animproved safety profile. In one variant of the invention, the compoundsof formula I are not isotopically labelled, or they are labelled onlywith one or more deuterium atoms. In a sub-variant, the compounds offormula I are not isotopically labelled at all. Isotopically labelledcompounds of formula I may be prepared in analogy to the methodsdescribed hereinafter, but using the appropriate isotopic variation ofsuitable reagents or starting materials.

The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salts” refers to non-toxic,inorganic or organic acid and/or base addition salts. Reference can bemade to “Salt selection for basic drugs”, Int. J. Pharm. (1986), 33,201-217.

Besides, the term “room temperature” as used herein refers to atemperature of 25° C.

Unless used regarding temperatures, the term “about” placed before anumerical value “X” refers in the current application to an intervalextending from X minus 10% of X to X plus 10% of X, and preferably to aninterval extending from X minus 5% of X to X plus 5% of X. In theparticular case of temperatures, the term “about” placed before atemperature “Y” refers in the current application to an intervalextending from the temperature Y minus 10° C. to Y plus 10° C., andpreferably to an interval extending from Y minus 5° C. to Y plus 5° C.
